Vegas And New Counter

#1
I have been practicing a few months, and I am ready to try my hand at live action. I was wondering if you guys have any good tips for staying under the radar? Also can you recommend any sites or books on this subject?

Don’t move your lips or be as obvious as a new counter generally is.

If you need to ask about “good tips for staying under the radar?“ you are not anywhere remotely close to being ready for casinos, and most certainly not for Las Vegas.

What state/area is home for you ?

I am in Texas. I have read everything I can get my hands on regarding staying under the radar. The reason I am asking here is, because some of the information seems a little dated. I figure the majority of you guys are out there and can give good recent advice.

I'm not a counter, but may I suggest two small things;

1) bet relatively small
2) don't spread much

I'd suggest playing $25 min tables and never betting more than $100. You won't win much but you'll probably gain a slight mathematical advantage, and thus be able to milk the casino for complementary offers.

And if you lose count, switch back to table min/basic strategy.

Do NOT attempt to play blackjack in Oklahoma — where you pay a fee per hand just to play.
You will play as much as 120 hands per hour at a moderately full table.
That many quarters is $30 an hour just to play !

AVARICE !

I have recently heard that there now ARE a couple of houses in Ok that have done away with the ante, although I haven't had a chance to independently verify this.

An intermediate player

What about for an intermediate player? Where might I want to try my hand in Vegas? Please only PM me, rather than posting publicly.

I'm guessing that I don't want to walk into Ceasar's and try these shennanigans. The flip side of this question I suppose is: Where should I not go play in Vegas as an intermediate player?

Almost anything MGM is good.
